Serving Families Across the United States
Hi, I'm Xiao Li.
Postpartum Doula
Professional Care • Warm Support • Peace of Mind
With 7 years of hands-on experience and care for more than 40 newborns, I bring skill, patience, and warmth to the precious weeks after birth — so new mothers can rest, recover, and enjoy their baby.
About Me
A steady, caring presence for your fourth trimester.
Originally from Shandong and settled in Guangdong for 17 years, I began my career as a maternity nurse in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, caring for babies at every stage from newborn to age five. Since 2023, I have served families across the United States, Canada, and Australia — in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, Vancouver, Sydney, and Brisbane — and since 2025 I have been based in the United States full-time, focused on Chinese families' postpartum care.
I hold a college degree and professional certifications in maternal-infant care, childcare, lactation care, and postpartum recovery, along with a North America doula certification and American Red Cross First Aid/CPR/AED training.

Reviews
What families say.
Translated from client feedback — families consistently praise Xiao Li's patience, professionalism, cooking, and genuine care.
Auntie Li is so patient. When I had unexpected bleeding, she came early without a word of complaint and took wonderful care of us. By the end of the month our baby had grown to 9.5 lbs, eating and sleeping well. Her cooking was excellent. We give her work a 90%+ rating — we are truly grateful.
53 wonderful days together. Auntie Li cooked delicious Cantonese-style confinement meals every day, and I recovered quickly. She even helped me with my own health basics so I sleep much better now. She feels like family — highly recommended.
Thank you so much for all the love and care you've shown Ada and our family these past two months. Your playful moments with Ada every day brought us so many laughs, and your love for what you do truly shines through. You've taught us so much as new parents. We're going to miss your wonderful cooking and delightful conversations! We're sure we'll see you again soon, whether in Irvine or San Francisco.
